This is the real reason tech is pushing self-driving cars. If you don’t need to see the road, you can look at more advertisements.
And they’ll sell it as a cost-saving feature, like smart TVs and Kindle tablets. “We can provide this at a reasonable price because the costs are subsidized with advertising.” You can buy a car with a traditional windshield for $80k or with an AdShield ™ for $40k.
self-driving cars
Something I’ve never understood about self-driving cars is why would you want the expense of owning one if you’re not driving it? It’s like how rich people used to own expensive cars but employed a chauffeur and never drove themselves.

Can’t extract as much value with trains as you can with cars
